The 5 to the 210 to the 57 to the 5 kinda' gets sorta' around LA. I don't know that its quicker but the 405 can be in a word, grueling.

I agree, the 5 is about 15 miles shorter, but you can loose that time easily in downtown LA, plus the road is wider and newer going around 210 to 57 to 5.

What they said. Of course I assume that you will do the usual 101 to the 126 to 210 from your location. R

4 days and counting...Terry and I will be arriving Thursday afternoon with teens (Katy and friend) in tow.
We are following Fiesta Lisa and Safari Rick's lead in the food catagory with a large Vegetable lasagne. We figure it will go with the Bloody Mary's. Terry reminded me that anything goes with Bloody Marys.
FC will be sporting a new look designed specifically for the beach. I'm working hard to find matching outfits for all.
We're off to find an electric knife to trim our memory foam mattress topper. This is so that at least our mattress will remember who slept there last.
Party On!
Not so shy Judi and getting less shy as rallies roll, Terry
The Gaines Gang in Sterling Streamer
Are we the only Wednesday arrivals? Mr. 'bo, Wanda (didn't you say Wednesday?), TIME? Anyone? R
Our work week is shaping up to be a real pain in the a##, if it keeps up, we may be down there tomorrow.......my momma always told me that "if you can't handle the heat in the kitchen, burn it down"....
just saying,
time
